The Strix True 7.1 Channel Gaming Headset is on display at CES, and the "true" in the name isn't just marketing.

This gaming headset actually features 10 neodymium magnets and volume controls for each channel. This multi-drive mania promises "lifelike, immersive audio" and considering we're talking about 20 discrete drivers I have no reason to doubt these have that capability.

The headset's control also works as a USB sound card with in-game audio control

The Strix True 7.1 Channel Gaming Headset also features static and breathing lighting effects, environmental noise cancellation, and multiple sound profiles.

  • 10 neodymium magnets and volume controls for each channel
